Port wood Though loners, the Kirkpatrick following in Independence made a valiant fight- His forces were led by W. Percivnl. and after the ballot was counted showed him self made of the proper stuff by as suring the convention of his loyal support for the nomln of next Saturday's convention. "V can't nay but Percival put up a hard but fair fight," remarked one of the delegates after election and ha ad ded, "His course has really strengthened him here." SiicccKsrul Kasnnr. The Nazaar given by the ladies of the Christian church on the evening of March 31st waa a very successful affair. A special motor was run from Monmouth bringing a large nnmber. The program, consisting of recitations, vocal and instrumental music, was very good. Many articles of value was put up for sale and quite a snug sum was realized from the sale. Jtnl'o Martin L.

Judge. Pipes re heiited the wTUnutiiiii that Lid trip to Polk at tlii-i time was for the purpo.-o of "living things" for the nominal ion of Lis friend Mct'siiu. mid in truth Hie judge's reminiscent mood while hen would indicate bin tuiml was not creiitlv burdened with thinL'M political. "See that old build ing," he reniiiiked pointing to the rear end of the residence of J. M. Stark near the depot "1 here is where 1 taught my first Hehool. I licked brats here in lS7o that now have families and grand-children. Why yes. I have licked Andy Tupper lots of time." Put it was not as school teacher, Judge Pipes most brilliantly shone when u resident of tin's section some thir ty years nsjo. The satire of his pen left the most lasting impres sion. The judge is one of the state's most finished newspaper writers. In earlier days ho was a democrat and the way he cari catured the republican candi. dates of Polk county during one campaign was something fierce The judge accused candidates of drinking plain water on the cam paign. Later ho won distinction in the field of journalism by writing a message for Governor Pennoyer. Judge Pipes is one of the ablest lawyers in the state and his traveling companion Judge McCain, for native legal ability belongs at the head of the list. He once served this district as prosecuting at torney, and the confidence of the peoplo in his legal ability will go far toward securing him the republication nomination for circuit judge. B. L. Eddy, an other aspirant, is geographically shutt off by Yamhill county, since Kddy would have to jump from Tillamook to the valley to get support, and Russell Wyatt, another candidate, is in Burns, Harney county, trying a murder case.
